Talking This guy is serious: his "Impala SS"

So I was at Best Buy and was talking to this fellow who told me he has a really fast 96 Impala SS. I decided to check it out and take a video of it.

I love that he said his engine bay was around 3,000 degrees. Magma isn't even that hot. It must be his K&N exhaust.

******* Caprice. LT4, yeah right with the stock LT1 intake on it. What a dumbass.

High 12's my ***. My Impala SS had 3.73's, cold air, udp, 1.6 rockers, hypertech, full exhaust and the best it did on street tires is 14.46. It was a consistent 14.60-70 runner.

Did anyone notice that he said he was faster on street tires than slicks? Ricer logic at its finest.

Just thought of this, he probably has the L99 motor in that thing. It is a Caprice but the spotlight is telling me it is an LT1.

For those of you who don't know the L99 was a 4.3L v8 that came in some of the Caprices

um.. did I hear him say the knocking noise was cos the car was trying to suck more air but it cant cos the air filter was not big enough?
